Not surprising, considering people can buy intangible music formats from little computers in their pockets these days... pretty worthless list if you ask me.

Lowest common denominator mulch in "is popular" shocker.

These lists are such a waste of fucking time.

Just goes to show that the most popular people in the industry aren't always the ones that are remembered or influential to music.

Justin Bieber will suck more money out of the word "dubstep" than everyone in the world has, combined.

Who the fuck will remember Katy Perry in five years time. We'll all still know who The Beatles were though.

I don't get all the comparisons to the Beatles? They're just a pop band from the sixties. They're weren't particulary inovative, they just went with what was popular at the time, which is exactly what pop artists do today. The only reason the only reason the artists the article draws comparisons to have sold more music is because it's so cheap and easy to buy nowadays.
